I can confirm yours does sound good on overrun Ed. Find a nice long steep hill and take your earplugs out....

If a carrot and a cabbage where to have a fight using only cocktail sticks as weapons, whilst balancing on the head of a Dodo, what temprature would it be in Cork.

Now thats a stupid question :lol:

The cork would be 298 kelvin

No I reckon it'd be 25 degrees C to the nearest whole degree ;)

Overrun noise shouldn't happen on modern bikes anymore, it's just the unburnt fuel popping in the exhaust etc that would normally be making the bike idle. Fuel injection ECU's just cut the fuel completely when not needed so no pops and bangs.

My K4 sounds like an excursion into no-man's land when I'm throttling off, tunnel or no tunnel :cool:

Somebody better tell my ECU that then.... 'Cause it crackles and pops on overrun, and last time I looked, it was EFI and EI....

Ditto here... K6 F.I. model and I get blue flames while decelerating... ummm... 'on the overrun' at around 4k revs! :cheers:

I've got twin Scorpion cans on my VTR. They sound awesome!!

Anyway, getting to the point, after I cleaned the exhaust system back at Easter, I didn't quite fit the rear pipe "just so" in the manifold. This results in it sucking a small amount of air in on the overrun and combining it with the unburnt fuel. The resulting pops and bangs and occasional flame or two make for great entertainment :cool::cool:


Sounds great too!!!!:D

Here's a question- is EFI electrical Fuel Injection and EI Electronic Ignition?

Mine used to make great pops on overrun. Loved it.
